Abstract:This paper presents operation of a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) to extract oscillatory power from ocean wave energy converter (WEC). DFIG has the advantage of generating power at both sub-synchronous and supersynchronous speed with only slip power to be handled by power converter at rotor side. At super-synchronous speed the rotor generates slip power along with the stator to take the net power generation above the generator power rating. Due to power generation capability above its rating, DFIG is a … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
